AWS bills Amazon an internal rate. It’s a closely held secret that few employees know but supposedly it’s better than at-cost.
- yazaddaruvala 4y agoIt is not secret. There is an internal spreadsheet that documents all the prices. Everyone has access! Everyone I worked with at Amazon knew the prices they were spending for the different services they were using or thinking of using.
